Their over-prescription is no doubt a problem. That being said, I have family members that are verteran's from the Vietnam era. Anti-depressants made their existence possible. They all had so much trouble adjusting and maintaining relationships. The change was night and day different.

Anecdotal evidence isn't really evidence, I know that. And the pharma companies are really just the worst. I have seen these things really work though.

EDIT: It's funny, but people never seem to question if modern American life actually, you know, is good for mental health. Maybe people are mentally ill because the world is super effing weird and hard to adjust to?
